I'm back and ready to play. Still see that there are a few more people to go to me. Any one going to post an up todate list of cigars?

Drake - you should probably talk to the pass host in PM about suggested puts/takes, just to make sure he's okay with them before you send this off.

yeah, i'm waiting to send it off for a reply. i just posted them here as he stated in post #3 of this thread. i gathered from that post that all participants should approve of my p/t's. he's been online since i've posted those. but, if this is something that should be done in a pm, (i'm guessing because there's something wrong with my p/t's) couldn't he just pm me a reply to my post? am i doing something wrong? if there is a problem with my p/t's in any of the participant's opinion, please let me know so that i can modify my p/t's if needed and send the box on its way.

The above is my only question. I might be wrong but isn't the padron 1964 superior a none havana? If so you shouldn't trade it for a havana even if it's worth more. That's the only thing I saw but I don't know jack about cigars.

that is what i think it might be, but the reason i thought it'd be ok is what CC posted:

Most of those Havanas I started with really are NOT that expensive so IMO an equally priced domestic is a fair exchange.

and the msrp of that padron is about $7, i believe. i'm new to all this as well. that's why i asked the question i did at the beginning of the thread. and i chose these p/t's based on the answer i recieved from the host. sorry, if this is holding up the pass. i'm just waiting for a yay or nay from CC and i'll change my p/t's or send the box with the p/t's i've stated.

[CoventryCat86]

I don't have a problem with the Padron 1964 for the Punch PC because of the statement I posted that Drake cited, I think it's a fair exchange. I guess my only question is that is the PAM Superior a natural or a maduro? Either way it's worth a couple of bucks more than the Punch PC so I'd say it's a fair trade.

However the LFD for the Opux X has me wondering. I could not find an LFD Double Ligero Especial therefore, I don't know what the price of that cigar is. The Opus X Perfecxion #5 is a $9.00 cigar.

Can you tell us EXACTLY what kind of LFD that cigar is?

it's a double ligero especiales with the pigtail cap. it sells for about 7.50-8. this is the only place online i've seen them: http://www.jackschwartz.com/products...PageID=limited i though the perfecxion #5 was a $7.50 cigar based on: http://www.cigarweekly.com/cigardb/b...measc&Origin=0. sorry if i was mistaken.

the padron is a maduro.

[CoventryCat86]

Actually, you're right Drake about the Perfecxion #5, my mistake The MSRP is indeed $7.50, I took the price from my personal inventory and I had paid $9.00 for it which DOES NOT mean it's a nine dollar cigar, it's a $7.50 cigar

I would say we are set to go especially since the PAM is a maduro which according to Famous-Smoke is a $9.30 cigar

I say send it off unless anyone else has any additional thoughts.

Damn, I guess I missed the post where It was heading my way. The runner comes up with a box for me and I was like, WTF did I order this time. Package was in very good shape and at first glance everything seemed in order.

I'm leaving in the AM for the RTDA so I wont have time to get to this till probably Tuesday. But on the bright side I'll hopefully have some good play's when I get back.

That M.C. #2 is simply calling my name.. You guys think an C. Espendido is a fair trade?

Yeah, it's a fair trade for the PASS but not for you (the Monte #2 is $9.00 cigar a while the Cohiba Esplendido is a $20.00 cigar) therefore I will not discourage it at all even though I think yer nuts

Next Tuesday or Wednesday is fine

[hex1848]

Ok, Finally getting to the point where I have time to work on the pass. Im a little concerned about the Esplendido. Teh band just doesnt look right (especially when compairing it to the other C's in the pass).

Will anyone be offended by a Tribute 2004 Torpedo (~$11) for the M #2 (~9 per CC)?
